THE ROBIN is the one
That interrupts the morn
With hurried, few, express reports
When March is scarcely on.
知更鸟就是那个唯一
天色拂晓,它引颈鸣啼
几声匆匆而又急速的报早
响彻在刚刚来到的三月里
The robin is the one
That overflows the noon
With her cherubic quantity,
An April but begun.
知更鸟就是那个唯一
正午的时候
她天使般的歌喉婉转流丽
将四月的幕布开启
The robin is the one
That speechless from her nest
Submits that home and certainty
And sanctity are best.
知更鸟就是那个唯一
寡言的它,探出巢穴
把至上的信条——
家、笃信以及尊严
播撒传递
